sarah beth briggs Pianist Sarah Beth Briggs, "an artist of extraordinary magnetism" (Daily Telegraph), demonstrated her musical gifts from a very early age. At eleven she made history by becoming the youngest ever finalist in the BBC Young Musician of the Year competition and within a year had made her Fairfield Hall concerto debut. She rose to international attention at fifteen as the joint winner of the International Mozart Competition in Salzburg. Major engagements followed at home and abroad and in 1991 she made her US concerto debut at the San Francisco Midsummer Mozart Festival (a festival to which she has regularly returned). Subsequently her solo career has taken her to Germany, Switzerland, Austria, France, Italy and the USA, as well as to many leading venues and to music clubs and festivals throughout the UK. She also gave the world premiere performance of newly discovered pieces by Benjamin Britten at the Chester Festival and has made numerous international radio and television recordings. A Hindemith Scholarship in 1987 gave Briggs an opportunity to develop her chamber music skills under the tutelage of Bruno Giuranna at an international series of master classes in Switzerland. This aspect of her musical enthusiasm has been vigorously maintained alongside her solo career. A critically acclaimed chamber music series (sponsored by the Argyll Group) at the Royal Northern College of Music in 1993 led to further chamber music partnerships, including collaborations with the renowned clarinettist Janet Hilton and most recently with her newly formed

He was educated in Essex where he started playing the piano and violin at a (fairly) early age. He began to compose at 14, and two years later attended Colchester Institute studying A-level music and German. Here he took an active part in the college's musical life as both pianist and composer and was thankfully inactive as a viola player. By moving to Birmingham Conservatoire he was happily able to give up the viola completely- a considerable gain to the viola playing world at large. Here he studied piano with Frank Wibaut and composition with John Joubert. As a founding member of the Thallein Ensemble he performed works by Berio, Messiaen, Finnissy, Ives and Schnittke. Schnittke was a major interest at this stage - in his final year he completed a dissertation on the composer's

JAKOB LUDWIG FELIX MENDELSSOHN-BARTHOLDY rd February 1809 - 4 th November 1849 Mendelssohn, Felix (1809 - 49), German composer, born Hamburg, grandson of Moses M. (q.v.). He was baptized and educated as a Christian, his father adding the surname Bartholdy to the family name. His youth was spent in the refined surroundings of a family of very considerable wealth, culture and brilliant social connection. He benefited by the tuition and advice of Berger, Zelter, Weber, Cherubini and Moscheles, and by the time he was 20 had already produced his famous Octet, 3 piano quartets, 2 sonatas, 2 symphonies and the Midsummer Night's Dream overture, besides a host of songs, an opera and many short pieces. The next few years were passed in visiting London, Munich, Vienna and Rome, and in incidental tours in Scotland, Italy and Switzerland (1829-31), he achieved a wide fame as pianist, composer and conductor. The first of his 10 visits to England took place in 1829. The Hebrides (fingal's Cave) overture was composed in 1830 (revised 1832). In 1835 he became conductor of the celebrated Leipzig Gewandhaus orchestra, and 2 years later married Cecile Jeanrenaud at Frankfurt. He conducted his oratorio St Paul at Dusseldorf in 1836 and Elijah at Birmingham in 1846. Persistent overwork and an excess of activities undermined his health: he died in Leipzig. His reputation, extravagantly high in his lifetime, is now sustained mainly by his violin Concerto, 1844, the incidental music to A Midsummer Night's Dream (particularly the overture), the Scottish and Italian symphonies and the Hebrides overture. Elijah is still popular with choral societies, but the chamber music and piano works (examples of impeccable craftsmanship, like all Mendelssohn's music) appeal to a more limited circle.

The real power is Ma Flannagan who is buying up land but concealing the fact that a railroad is to pass right through the town. Her scheme is hindered, however, when her only son falls in love with Karolka, a new and pretty Czech immigrant. Karolka's Uncle Marek also thwarts her plans. Dvorak not only takes a job playing the piano at "Flannagans" but plays poker to pay off Marek's tax debts. He learns from Abe, a negro man of all work, the theme for his New World Symphony. After forcing Ma Flannagan to pay a just price for Marek's land, he smoothes the path of true love between Karolka and Shaun, while enjoying a musical triumph in New York.

Sonny Boy Williamson 1 tribute by: eRIC Leblanc John Lee Curtis Williamson "In his mouth and hands, the harmonica learned to wail and chirp, laugh and cry, in spanking new rhythms and to daring new beats." Sonny Boy Williamson's Gravemarker "The sound he created virtually laid the groundwork for the electric blues band style that was developed in Chicago about the time of his death." ~ David Evans, Memphis State University music professor "... a forceful singer, popular recording artist, and the first truly virtuosic blues harmonica player, whose richly imagative solo flights resulted in completely re-shaping the playing approach and the role of his humble instrument in the blues." ~ Pete Welding "Easily the most important harmonica player of the pre-war era, John Lee Williamson almost single-handedly made the humble mouth organ a worthy lead instrument for blues bands leading the way for the amazing innovations of Little Walter and a platoon of others to follow. If not for his tragic murder in 1948 while on his way home from a Chicago gin mill, Williamson would doubtless have been right there alongside them, exploring new and exciting directions. Williamson commenced his sensational recording career with a resounding bang. His first vocal offering on Bluebird was the seminal "Good Morning School Girl," covered countless times across the decades. That same auspicious date also produced "Sugar Mama Blues" and "Blue Bird Blues," both of them every bit as classic in their own right.

dancing on water (marty walker, clarinets) CB0005 The Music As Is Thought/Aurora , a casually dramatic work for bass clarinet, harp, and vibraphone, is like a miniature concerto in its structure, contrasting solo bass clarinet phrases with tutti lines. Song(s) of the Sirens Among Simple Shadows , a quiet work for two bass clarinets, trumpet, and piano, slowly undulates with hauntingly thin wind textures and muted rushes of piano tremolo. Dancing on Water , a light, rhythmically quirky two-movement piece for clarinet and marimba (4 hands), alludes to fragments of Mexican folk music as it develops its melodic and rhythmic cells. Elegant Detours On Tuesday The composers Michael Jon Fink Daniel Lentz Peter Garland Jim Fox ’s music has been commissioned and performed by groups and soloists throughout the U.S. and presented at the Monday Evening Concerts, New Music America, Real Art Ways, Wires, the SCREAM Festival, the CalArts Contemporary Music Festival, the Ventura Chamber Music Festival, L.A.C.E., and many similar venues. He has also scored feature films.

adams/cox/fink/fox CB0009 The music Adams' Dark Wind was written for Marty Walker and this CD in 2001. Although it is a process-driven piece involving polyrhythms and ever-widening intervals, its rolled percussion and piano parts and quietly expressive clarinet lines lend it the feeling of a freely composed, almost impressionistic work. The Fink, Cox, and Fox quintets were written for Marty Walker in 1990, and given their premieres by him that same year at the Los Angeles Contemporary Exhibitions (L.A.C.E.) gallery. These pieces were released in 1992 in a limited pressing on the short-lived Raptoria Caam label, a company run by composer/performer Maria Newman. Fink's Thread of Summer is a continuous melody filtered through the various timbres of the quintet's instrumental combinations. Cox's When April May floats a lyric line over a repeating harmonic structure. Fox's Between the Wheels is a series of quiet bass clarinet statements, accompanied by violin harmonics, heard against a cycling tapestry of string tremolos. The composers John Luther Adams The Light That Fills the World Rick Cox is a Los Angeles-based composer and multi-instrumentalist. As a featured performer (woodwinds, guitar, and sampler), he can be heard on such popular film scores as
